About Sofia
Sofia Larraz is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida with 40 years of professional experience. She works with people facing addictions, relationship strain, family conflict, parenting challenges, anxiety, depression, and major life changes. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.
Her approach centers on clear, practical conversation. She uses client-centered therapy to follow what matters to the client and the Gottman Method for relationship work. In session she listens, asks direct questions, and helps people identify immediate next steps they can try between meetings.
Sofia frames treatment around everyday pressures like work, family, money, and health. She addresses issues such as trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related concerns, anger, self-esteem, and career stress. She also works with people managing bipolar symptoms, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and midlife transitions.
She pays attention to attachment and communication patterns, control issues, divorce and separation, forgiveness, and multicultural concerns. The focus is on practical change rather than theory alone. Conversations move toward skills, clearer choices, and manageable shifts in day-to-day life.

BHow sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Sofia draws on client-centered therapy and the Gottman Method in her work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely to what each person says and building sessions around the client's priorities. It helps with stress, coping skills, self-esteem, and managing life changes.The Gottman Method addresses relationship patterns and communication. It uses structured conversations and practical exercises to improve how partners talk, handle conflict, and rebuild connection. This approach is useful for people dealing with relationship strain and intimacy-related issues.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Sofia will work collaboratively to figure out which method fits a person's needs and goals. She will discuss what feels most helpful and adjust the focus as progress unfolds.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are not specified here.
